Born on the east coast of the US, I currently live in New York where I work in the Real Estate group of an investment bank. I love spending time outdoors and I am an avid skier, surfer, backpacker and distance runner. I also love all things music and play the guitar, piano and ukulele (all equally poorly).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

No better opportunity to learn about a town/city/country then staying with locals. I've had some really cool couchsurfing experiences from Canada to Australia. Couchsurfing is the purest way to travel in my mind.

Interests

• running
• skiing

Music, Movies, and Books

Movie: Tree of Life by Terrence Malick

Book: Undaunted Courage: The Story of Lewis and Clark

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran a 50 mile mountain race and finished. It was just as miserable as sounds, but the mental experience was very powerful.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am always happy to host surfers that have hosted me when I am back in NYC (complete with a walking tour of the neighborhood :)
